Nail down those definitions

Define is a ‘simple’ objective 1 command term… but you must be precise in your answers.

Definitions are also a great start to review and build into deeper explanation of the concepts.

• Quiz yourself on the definitions, check your answers. This Sortable Syllabus might help.
• Pay attention to the markschemes – what is the importance of the underlined terms and why can’t you get marks without them?
• ‘Unpack’ the definition into its component parts – what is the relevance of each and how does it lead to more in-depth explanation of the concept?

Here’s a quiz for the define assessment statements in the SL Core and for the two options my class did this year. It’s a GoogleDoc – here’s the link.
